Sugar Plums

Just now, apropos of nothing:

Samuel: "Sugar plums are like this." [makes circle with thumb and forefinger]
Daddy: "Oh, OK."
Samuel: "When I was sleeping, before Christmas, sugar plums jumped in my head."

Spontaneous Lorax

Samuel started reciting The Lorax after I buckled him into his seat on our way to school today, and I managed to record him/us with my phone. Here it is.

Oh -- and also from this morning, as Samuel was climbing onto the bathroom counter to brush his teeth -- "I'm tall, like a POTATO! No, I'm tall like a BOWLING BALL!"
